thanks for the tips.

My tip is – stay clear of smart people. It just makes you depressed!

maybe that’s why people have been avoiding me!! ;)

But also – it is never too late. It is amazing what your brain can remember short term.

tell me about it… i can’t remember half the things i crammed in b4 the greek exam!!

Sit near smart people a few hours before the exam. Listen to them discuss all their approaches to the coming exam and absorb that information through osmosis. Every now and then throw in a question and get them to riff on it. That’s how I survived first year exams. That and taking challenges to insert stupid things into essays.

Become a nihilist: claim that it’s all pointless, exams are merely the oppression of the powerless by the powerful to maintain their power.

Make a stand. Don’t do the exam
